Abstract

An elastic isotropic body in a state of plane deformation, which contains a system of randomly placed cracks under the action of a dynamic (harmonic) loading, is considered. The authors set the problem of determining the stress field around the cracks under the conditions of their wave interaction. The solution method is based on the introduction of displacements in the body in the form of a superposition of discontinuous solutions of the equations of motion constructed for each crack. With this in mind, the initial problem is reduced to a system of singular integro-differential equations with respect to unknown displacement jumps on the crack surfaces. To solve this system, a new iterative method, which involves solving a set of independent integro-differential equations that differ only in their right-hand parts at each iteration, is proposed. For the zero approximation, solutions that correspond to individual cracks under the action of dynamic loading are chosen. Such a new approach allows to avoid the difficulties associated with the need to solve systems of integro-differential equations of large dimensions that arise when traditional methods are used. Based on the results of the iterations, formulas for calculating the stress intensity coefficients for each crack were obtained. In the partial case of four cracks, a good agreement between the results obtained during the direct solution of the system of eight integro-differential equations by the mechanical quadrature method and the results obtained by the iterative method was established. In general, numerical examples demonstrate the convergence and stability of the proposed method in the case of systems with a fairly large number of densely located cracks. The influence of the interaction between cracks on the stress intensity factor (SIF) value under dynamic loading conditions was studied. An important and new result for fracture mechanics is the detection of the absolute maximum of the normal stresses at certain frequencies of the oscillating normal loading. The number of interacting cracks and the configuration of the crack system itself affect the values of the frequencies at which SIF reaches a maximum and the maximum values. These maximum values significantly (by several times) exceed the SIF values of single cracks under a similar loading. At the same time, under conditions of static or low-frequency loading, it is possible to reduce the SIF values compared to the SIF for individual cracks. When cracks are sheared, the values of the tangential stresses have a tendency to decrease with increasing frequency, and their values do not significantly differ from the values of the tangential stress for an individual crack.
